Either the mobile apps or the tool will get you personalized refund information based on the processing of your tax return. They will provide an actual refund date as soon as the IRS processes your tax return and approves your refund. Most refunds will be issued in less than 21 days.
The IRS should issue your refund check within six to eight weeks of filing a paper return. If you chose to receive your refund through direct deposit, you should receive it within a week. If you use e-file, your refund should be issued between two and three weeks. You can check on the status of your refund by calling the Automated Refund Service at 1 (800) 829-4477. You must wait until 6 weeks after filing your return before calling. Be sure to have a copy of your return available to refer to.
